Description:
First Names, a Practical Guide contains a selection of 6,000 first names that will appeal to modern parents. Each name is explained in an understandable way; where necessary, the author provides onomastic background information.
The extensive introduction answers questions that parents looking for a name often ask, such as: is any desired first name legally permitted, how many parents still use naming conventions these days, what is the importance of the meaning of the name and which names are currently popular? For creative parents, the author gives a number of tips to come up with an original variant based on existing names.
